Famine Camp 09

went for 30hr famine camp again this yr! qj went too (he invited mi lol) and took lots of pics...famine camp was actually few months ago lol...aniwae...will be doing this blogpost by pic blogging! pics courtesy of qingjing's and tifanny's fb albums!

qj and me are gamemasters!


campers and some simulated chaos...they played some experiential games that simulated conditions in 3rd world countries...

new friends! the sajc table tennis team lol we took a photo with one of the organisers (itink he is)

we found utt!

simulated mountain of trash lol

camwhoring in the rubbish

the campers made some shelters for themselves

nice shirt!

qj and some water...we dint eat anything in orchard! the sajc ppl were tempted by some coffee but their integrity shone through! great job!

the 2nd dae was newspaper collection! this time we joined some tjc ppl to collect newspapers! found out they were frm the same class lol

some hardwork lol

we did our job very efficiently! so efficient that we had to wait quite long for the camp finale concert to start lol so we watched a movie and slacked arnd at burgerking while waiting...yeah burgerking LOL but after arnd 24hrs of not eating stuff u kind of get used it so it wasnt that tempting to just buy smthing and eat...

thalia and qj stoning

bryan still energetic

qj again lol


campers waiting for the concert

yay finally the concert begins lol

famine camp finale concert!

modernjazz frm ntu!

awesome stuff frm eic!

the highlight of the concert (for most of the campers itink) zhang huimei!!! brilliant live performance and she relli know how to heat up the atmosphere some of the audience were on their feet singing as well...when i told jefry she was at the concert itink he was like "omg why dint go this yr's camp" lol

the crowd was ecstatic!

after the concert the camp was over! we can eat again! the food provided was good...but anything edible would have tasted great at that point lol however we decided to go for another round of food at burgerking lol

interesting receipt error lol

ok that was a very long blogpost lol pic blogging is good!

M1 Singapore Fringe Festival

Everyone <3 free stuff! theres another nuffnang contest!

Q: Art and the Law is the sixth edition of the M1 Singapore Fringe Festival - True or False?
(Hint: Answer can be found at www.singaporefringe.com)

hmm nt very sure of the answer so...lets go to the hint website and find out!

upon reaching the website...first impression is 'wow simple and elegant website'...the links also extend smoothly

but where is the answer?well...it has to be derived from clues in the website

from the link 'about the fringe>message from m1' they stated that the festival debuted in 2005...therefore the 'Art and the Law' is the sixth edition of the festival.

the correct answer is 'True'...itink...lol

Mega Movie Review

yeah im going to review all the unreviewed movies that were in the "blog updates" sidebar. its very difficult to blog during a busy semester so i guess this would be quite an efficient way to clear up the overflowing list of blog updates waiting to be posted lol

before starting on the movie reviews, some tag replies first...

TAG REPLIES
@hoifai: hallo!u back in sg?lol

@JustSpree: havnt bought anything frm sprees before itink but i will allow ur tag to be left there lol just dun spam thanks!

MEGA MOVIE REVIEW!!!
ok dun expect a long write-up on each movie but pics will still be added lol

Terminator: Salvation
Good action movie with not much storyline...would help if you are a fan of the series but this was the first terminator movie iwatched so had to ask frens for some info on the backstory lol
Rating [++++ ] 4/5

Night at the Museum 2
probably at least as good as the first movie...quite enjoyable...the script was quite witty as well
Rating [+++++] 5/5

Blood: The Last Vampire
hmm its rare to find a movie review here with less than 3/5 but when that happens u know that the movie wasnt good...doesnt help when the lead actress is a bad role model IRL...lol
Rating [++ ] 2/5

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
without megan fox it would be 4/5...haha just jk...this movie was great!
Rating [+++++] 5/5

The Taking of Pelham123
good movie with amazing acting...both the lead actors were very zai
Rating [++++ ] 4/5

Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince
usually reviewers would say the harry potter movies dun do the books justice...however i dint read the book for this movie and thought that it was quite a good movie...lets not be so picky
Rating [++++ ] 4/5

Public Enemies
this movie moves along at a rather slow pace but the post production work was quite good, giving the movie a gritty feel...in addition depp was the lead actor which makes this a good movie notwithstanding any other negative points lol
Rating [++++ ] 4/5

GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra
fast paced action movie which was not bad and sets itself up for a sequel lol
Rating [++++ ] 4/5

Up
amazing movie that could even rival wall-e which got 10/5 on this blog before...
Rating [+++++] 5/5

ok there are more movie reviews coming up but not before completing the remaining blog updates!
